1.2 Satellite Image Data Sources

Some of the main sources of satellite images include:

• USGS Earth Explorer

• Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center (LP DAAC)

• NASA Earthdata Search

• Copernicus Open Access Hub

• AWS Public Dataset - Landsat

However, most of these sources are centralized within Google Earth Engine, which allows searching for satellite image data sources. GEE can be managed through APIs in different programming languages: JavaScript (by default), Python, and R (rgee package).
